Jamaican dancehall superstar Shenseea continues to expand her global reach, achieving another major career milestone as her collaboration with Daddy Yankee, “Echo (FIFA World Cup 2026),” climbs to No. 6 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart for the week of July 4, 2026. The achievement marks Shenseea’s highest-charting entry on the prestigious Latin Airplay chart, further cementing her status as one of the Caribbean’s most successful crossover artists.
The song’s impressive rise is another indication of Shenseea’s growing influence beyond dancehall. Since its release as part of the Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Album, “Echo” has steadily gained momentum across Latin radio stations throughout the United States, connecting with audiences through its energetic blend of dancehall, reggaeton and global pop sounds.
“Echo” pairs two of the Caribbean’s most recognizable voices. Daddy Yankee, widely regarded as one of reggaeton’s founding superstars, joins forces with Shenseea, whose international rise has made her one of Jamaica’s most prominent contemporary artists.
Released through the Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Album, the anthem was co-produced and executive produced by Grammy Award-winning producer Tainy, alongside an international production team that includes Ibrahim Maalouf, Massari, Adium, Jota Rosa and Albert Hype. The song was designed to capture the excitement and unity surrounding the world’s biggest sporting event while blending the musical traditions of Latin America and the Caribbean.
Speaking about the collaboration during its release, Shenseea described the opportunity as especially meaningful because both music and football unite people around the world regardless of language or culture. Daddy Yankee echoed that sentiment, calling the project an opportunity to bring the world together through music and sport.
The climb to No. 6 on Billboard’s Latin Airplay chart represents another significant milestone in Shenseea’s rapidly expanding international career. Earlier in June, “Echo” entered both Billboard’s Latin Airplay and Rhythmic Airplay charts before making one of the week’s biggest jumps on Latin radio, moving from No. 18 to No. 6 in just five weeks.
For an artist who first emerged from Jamaica’s vibrant dancehall scene, the achievement highlights Shenseea’s versatility and her ability to connect with audiences across multiple genres. Over the past several years, she has collaborated with international stars spanning hip-hop, pop, Afrobeats and now Latin music, building a reputation as one of the Caribbean’s most dynamic crossover performers.
“Echo” serves as the third official single from the Official FIFA World Cup 2026™ Album, joining a collection of songs celebrating the tournament that will be hosted by the United States, Canada and Mexico. FIFA has positioned the soundtrack as a global musical experience featuring artists from different cultures and genres, reflecting the worldwide appeal of football.
The collaboration between Daddy Yankee and Shenseea has become one of the album’s standout releases, bringing together the rhythmic energy of reggaeton and dancehall in a record that resonates with fans across continents.
Shenseea’s continued success on the Billboard Latin charts demonstrates the increasing global influence of Caribbean artists. As dancehall continues to intersect with Latin music, Afrobeats and mainstream pop, collaborations like “Echo” showcase how Jamaican talent continues to shape the international music landscape.
With the FIFA World Cup approaching and “Echo” continuing to gain radio support, Shenseea’s latest achievement reinforces her position as one of Jamaica’s leading ambassadors on the world stage—and suggests there may be even bigger chart milestones ahead.
